The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements.

Microbot Medical Inc. (the “Company”) is a pre-clinical medical device company specializing in the research, design and development of next generation micro-robotics assisted medical technologies targeting the minimally invasive surgery space. The Company is primarily focused on leveraging its micro-robotic technologies with the goal of redefining surgical robotics while improving surgical outcomes for patients.

On November 28, 2016, ~~(the “Merger”),~~ the Company consummated a transaction pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated August 15, 2016, with Microbot Medical Ltd., a private medical device company organized under the laws of the State of Israel (“Microbot Israel”). On the same day and in connection with the Merger, the Company changed its name from StemCells, Inc. to Microbot Medical Inc. On November 29, 2016, the Company’s common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “MBOT”.

The Company and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “Company”.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions pertaining to transactions and matters whose ultimate effect on the financial statements cannot precisely be determined at the time of financial statements preparation. Although these estimates are based on management’s best judgment, actual results may differ from these estimates.

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regulations. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments except as otherwise discussed).

Operating results for the ~~three and nine-month~~three-month period ended ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

To date, the Company has not generated revenues from its operations. As of ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, the Company had unrestricted cash and cash equivalent balance of ~~approximately $26,531,~~$17,924, which management believes is sufficient to fund its operations for more than 12 months from the date of issuance of these financial statements and sufficient to fund its operations necessary to continue development activities of its current proposed products.

Due to continuing research and development activities, the Company expects to continue to incur additional losses for the foreseeable future. While management of the Company believes that it has sufficient funds for more than 12 months, the Company may seek to raise additional funds through future issuances of either debt and/or equity securities and possibly additional grants from the Israeli Innovation Authority and other government institutions. The Company’s ability to raise additional capital in the equity and debt markets is dependent on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the market demand for the Company’s stock, which itself is subject to a number of development and business risks and uncertainties, as well as the uncertainty that the Company would be able to raise such additional capital at a price or on terms that are favorable to the Company.

An epidemic of the coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) is ongoing throughout the world. As the outbreak is still evolving, much of its impact remains unknown. As of this filing, it is impossible to predict the effect and potential spread of the coronavirus disease globally. The coronavirus disease may cause significant delays and disruptions to our pre-clinical studies.

Additionally, travel restrictions have been implemented with respect to certain countries in an effort to contain the coronavirus disease, and several countries have expanded screenings of travellers. As travel restrictions are increasingly implemented and extended to other countries, the Company and its contract research organizations may be unable to visit its clinical trial sites and monitor the data from its clinical trials on timely basis. The Company’s employees may also face travel restrictions, which would impact its business. Furthermore, some of the Company’s manufacturers and suppliers are in Europe and may be impacted by port closures and other restrictions resulting from the coronavirus outbreak, which may disrupt the Company’s supply chain or limit its ability to obtain sufficient materials for our products.

The significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of these unaudited interim ~~condensed~~ consolidated financial statements are identical to those applied in the preparation of the latest annual audited financial statements with the exception of the following:

~~Cash and cash equivalents consist~~Fair value of ~~cash and demand deposits in banks, and other short-term liquid investments (primarily interest-bearing time deposits) with original maturities of less than three months.~~financial instruments:

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, other receivable and other accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.

A fair value hierarchy is used to rank the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices in the markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements on a recurring basis and the level of inputs used in such measurements were as ~~follows (in thousands):~~follows:

Management records and discloses legal contingencies in accordance with ASC Topic 450 Contingencies. A provision is recorded when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company monitors the stage of progress of its litigation matters to ~~time, new~~determine if any adjustments are required.

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), or other standard setting bodies and adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations upon adoption.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Changes to Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurements”, which will improve the effectiveness of disclosure requirements for recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The standard removes, modifies, and adds certain disclosure requirements, and is effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2020. The Company does not expect that this standard will have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

~~In June 2016, the FASB~~ issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses – Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”, which introduces a model based on expected losses to estimate credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments. In addition, for available-for-sale debt securities with unrealized losses, the losses will be recognized as allowances rather than reductions in the amortized cost of the securities. The ASU is effective for smaller reporting companies for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2022 (January 1, 2023 for the Company). with early adoption permitted. The Company ~~does not expect that~~is currently evaluating the impact this ~~standard will~~guidance may have ~~a material effect~~ on ~~the Company’s~~its consolidated financial ~~statements.~~statements and related disclosures.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes” which eliminates the need for an organization to analyze whether the following apply in a given period: (1) exception to the incremental approach for intraperiod tax allocation; (2) exceptions to accounting for basis differences when there are ownership changes in foreign investments; and (3) exceptions in interim period income tax accounting for year-to-date losses that exceed anticipated losses. The ASU also is designed to improve financial statement preparers’ application of income tax-related guidance and simplify GAAP for (1) franchise taxes that are partially based on income, (2) transactions with a government that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill, (3) separate financial statements of legal entities that are not subject to tax, and (4) enacted changes in tax laws in interim periods. The standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2021 with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 on January 1, 2021 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”) using the modified retrospective approach for all lease arrangements at the beginning period of adoption. Leases existing for the reporting period beginning January 1, 2019 are presented under ASU 2016-02. The Company leases office space and vehicles under operating leases.

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating lease assets are presented as operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, and corresponding operating lease liabilities are presented within accrued expenses and other current liabilities (current portions), and as operating lease liabilities (long-term portions), on our consolidated balance sheet.

Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the remaining lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. Our leases do not provide an implicit interest rate. We calculate the incremental borrowing rate to reflect the interest rate that we would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment over a similar term, and consider our historical borrowing activities and market data in this determination. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

We have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which we account for as a single lease component. ~~Some of our leases contain variable lease payments, which are expensed as incurred unless those payments are based on an index or rate.~~ Variable lease payments based on an index or rate are initially measured using the index or rate in effect at the lease commencement and included in the measurement of the lease liability; thereafter, changes to lease payments due to rate or index updates are recorded as rent expense in the period incurred. We have elected not to recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a term of 12 months or less. The effect of short-term leases on our ROU assets and lease liabilities was not material. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. In addition, we do not have any related party leases and our sublease transactions are de minimis.

~~As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company’s ROU assets and lease liabilities for operating leases totaled $822 and $962, respectively.~~

Undiscounted maturities of operating lease payments as ~~September 30, 2020 and December~~March 31, ~~2019~~2021 are summarized as follows:

Microbot Israel ~~obtained~~has received grants from the Israeli Innovation Authority (“IIA”) ~~grants~~ for participation in research and development ~~for the years~~since 2013 through ~~September 30, 2020 in~~March 31, 2021 totaling approximately $1,500. In return, the ~~total amount of approximately $1,500 and, in return, Microbot Israel~~Company is obligated to pay royalties amounting to 3%-3.5% of its future sales from commercialization of the funded research and development, up to the amount of the ~~grant. The grant is linked to the exchange rate of the dollar to the New Israeli Shekel and bears interest of Libor per annum.~~grants received.

The payment of royalties with respect to the repayment of the grants is contingent upon the successful completion of the Company’s research and development programs and generating sales. The Company has no obligation to repay these grants, if the project fails, is unsuccessful or aborted or if no sales are generated. The financial risk is assumed completely by the Government of Israel. ~~The grants are received from the Government on a project-by-project basis.~~

Microbot Israel signed an agreement with the Technion Research and Development Foundation (“TRDF”) in June 2012 by which TRDF transferred to Microbot Israel a global, exclusive, royalty-bearing license. As partial consideration for the license, Microbot Israel shall pay TRDF royalties on net sales (between 1.5%-3%) and on sublicense income as detailed in the agreement.

On January 27, 2017, the Company entered into a Contract Research Agreement (the “Research Agreement”) with The Washington University (“Washington U.”), pursuant to which the parties are collaborating to determine the effectiveness of the Company’s self-cleaning shunt.

The study in Washington U. includes several phases. The first phase (initial research) was completed. An agreement on the second phase was entered in September 2018 with total expected costs of approximately $248. As of September 30, 2020, this study is still on going and will be extended to continue until March 15, 2021. Pursuant to the Research Agreement, all rights, title and interest in the data, information and results obtained or arrived at by Washington U. in the performance of its services under the Research Agreement, as well as any patentable inventions obtained or arrived at in the performance of such services, will be jointly owned by the Company and Washington U., and each will have full right to practice and grant licenses in joint inventions.

On September 12, 2016, the Company entered into a research agreement (the “WSU Agreement”) with Wayne State University (“WSU.”), pursuant to which the parties are collaborating to determine the efficacy of the Company’s self-cleaning shunt.

The study in WSU includes several phases. The first phase (initial research) was completed. An agreement on the second phase was entered in April 2018 with total expected costs of approximately $130. In July 2018 the contract was updated to include phase 2.1 (preliminary phase to phase 2) with total expected costs of approximately $213. Pursuant to the WSU Agreement, WSU shall own all data generated by the research and the Company shall have unrestricted free right to use and disclose all the results, information and material generated from the WSU Agreement.

Rights to inventions, improvements or discoveries, whether or not patentable or copyrightable made solely by the employees of the Company in the course of performance of the workplan agreed upon between the Company and WSU shall belong to the Company.

Rights to inventions, improvements or discoveries, whether or not patentable or copyrightable made solely by the employees of WSU in the course of performance of the workplan agreed upon between the Company and WSU shall belong to WSU. WSU shall grant the Company with a worldwide non-exclusive, perpetual, royalty-free license to university inventions to use and practice patentable inventions.

Rights to inventions, improvements or discoveries, whether or not patentable or copyrightable made by at least one employee of WSU and one employee of the Company in the course of performance of the workplan agreed upon between the Company and WSU shall belong to WSU and the Company jointly. Both the Company and WSU will be free to use and license to others the rights of joint inventions for any and all purposes without consultation or obligation to the other party.

The Company lost its appeal of an adverse judgment in the lawsuit captioned Sabby Healthcare Master Fund Ltd. and Sabby Volatility Warrant Master Fund Ltd., Plaintiffs, against Microbot Medical Inc., Defendant, in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York (Index No. 654581/2017). As a result, the Securities Purchase Agreement (the ��SPA”) related to the Company’s June 8, 2017 equity financing (the “Financing”) was rescinded as it related to Sabby Healthcare Master Fund Ltd. and Sabby Volatility Warrant Master Fund Ltd. (“Sabby”), and the Company paid approximately $3,700 to Sabby in return for the 83,333 (post-stock split) shares of common stock Sabby purchased pursuant to the SPA. Soon after, the Company was named as the defendant in a lawsuit captioned Empery Asset Master Ltd., Empery Tax Efficient, LP, Empery Tax Efficient II, LP, Hudson Bay Master Fund Ltd., Plaintiffs, against Microbot Medical Inc., Defendant, in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York (the “Court”) (Index No. 651182/2020). The complaint alleges, among other things, that the Company breached multiple representations and warranties contained in the SPA, of which the Plaintiffs participated, and fraudulently induced Plaintiffs into signing the SPA. The complaint seeks rescission of the SPA and return of the Plaintiffs’ $6,750 purchase price with respect to the Financing. The Company filed a Motion to Dismiss on March 16, 2020, which Motion is pending before the Court.

On April 28, 2019, the Company brought an action against Alliance Investment Management, Ltd. (“Alliance”), later amended to include Joseph Mona (“Mona”) as a defendant, in the Southern District of New York under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, 15 U.S.C. 78p(b), to compel Alliance and Mona to disgorge short swing profits realized from purchases and sales of the Company’s securities within a period of less than six months. The case is Microbot Medical Inc. v. Alliance Investment Management, Ltd., No. 19-cv-3782-GBD (SDNY). The amount of profits the Company is seeking to divest is estimated to be approximately $468.

~~On October 28, 2019, Alliance filed a motion for summary judgment requesting that the Court dismiss the claims against Alliance.~~ On February 4, 2020, Mona answered the 16(b) claim the Company asserted against him by claiming various equitable defenses, and filed a counterclaim against Microbot under Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, claiming a net loss on trading the Company’s stock of approximately $151.

On March 6, 2020, the Company filed a motion for judgment on the pleadings with respect to the Company’s 16(b) claim against Mona, together with a motion to dismiss Mona’s 10(b) counterclaim. These motions were fully briefed as of April 26, 2020 and remain pending.

~~On September 17, 2020, the Court issued~~ a Memorandum Decision & Order that, among other things, granted Alliance’s summary judgment motion. Notwithstanding the dismissal of the Company’s claim against Alliance, the Company’s Section 16(b) claim against Mona remains pending.

On January 4, 2018, Microbot Israel entered into an agreement with CardioSert Ltd. (“CardioSert”) to acquire certain patent-protected technology owned by CardioSert (the “Technology”).

Pursuant to the Agreement, Microbot Israel made an initial payment of $50 to CardioSert and had 90-days to elect to complete the acquisition. At the end of the 90-day period, at Microbot Israel’s sole option, CardioSert shall assign and transfer the Technology to Microbot Israel and Microbot Israel shall pay to CardioSert additional amounts and securities as determined in the agreement.

On ~~April 10,~~May 25, 2018, Microbot delivered an Exercise Notice to CardioSert Ltd., notifying it that Microbot elected to exercise the option to acquire the Technology owned by CardioSert and therefore made an additional cash payment of $250 and 6,738 shares of common stock ~~(100,000 shares of common stock before the Reverse Split)~~ estimated at $74.

The agreement may be terminated by Microbot Israel at any time for convenience upon 90-days’ notice. The agreement may be terminated by CardioSert in case the first commercial sale does not occur by the third anniversary of the date of signing of the agreement except if Microbot Israel has invested more than $2,000 in certain development stages, or the first commercial sale does not occur within 50 months. In each of the above termination events, or in case of breach by Microbot Israel, CardioSert shall have the right to buy back the Technology from Microbot Israel for $1.00, upon 60 days prior written notice, but only 1 year after such termination. Additionally, the agreement may be terminated by either party upon breach of the other (subject to cure).

CardioSert agreed to assist Microbot Israel in the development of the Technology for a minimum of one year, for a monthly consultation fee of NIS 40,000 (or approximately US$~~11.50,~~12.40, based on an exchange rate of ~~NIS3.47~~NIS3.215 to the dollar) covering up to 60 consulting hours per month.

The Company lost its appeal of an adverse judgment in the lawsuit captioned Sabby Healthcare Master Fund Ltd. and Sabby Volatility Warrant Master Fund Ltd., Plaintiffs, against Microbot Medical Inc., Defendant, in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York (Index No. 654581/2017). As a result, the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) related to the Company’s June 8, 2017 equity financing (the “Financing”) was rescinded as it related to Sabby Healthcare Master Fund Ltd. and Sabby Volatility Warrant Master Fund Ltd. (“Sabby”), and the Company paid approximately $3,700 to Sabby in return for the 83,333 shares of common stock Sabby purchased pursuant to the SPA. Soon after, the Company was named as the defendant in a lawsuit captioned Empery Asset Master Ltd., Empery Tax Efficient, LP, Empery Tax Efficient II, LP, Hudson Bay Master Fund Ltd., Plaintiffs, against Microbot Medical Inc., Defendant, in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York (the “Court”) (Index No. 651182/2020). The complaint alleges, among other things, that the Company breached multiple representations and warranties contained in the SPA, of which the Plaintiffs participated, and fraudulently induced Plaintiffs into signing the SPA. The complaint seeks rescission of the SPA and return of the Plaintiffs’ $6,750 purchase price with respect to the Financing. The Company filed a Motion to Dismiss on March 16, 2020, which was denied by decision and order entered on February 17, 2021. On March 18, 2021, the Company filed a notice of appeal of the denial of the Motion to Dismiss. At this time no estimation of the potential outcome of the litigation can be made.

The Company’s management is unable to assess the likelihood that it would be successful in any trial with respect to the SPA or the Financing, having previously lost the Sabby lawsuit. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that if the Company goes to trial and ultimately loses, or if the Company decides to settle at any time, such an adverse outcome would not be material to the Company’s consolidated financial position.

On April 28, 2019, the Company brought an action against Alliance Investment Management, Ltd. (“Alliance”), later amended to include Joseph Mona (“Mona”) as a defendant, in the Southern District of New York under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, 15 U.S.C. 78p(b), to compel Alliance and Mona to disgorge short swing profits realized from purchases and sales of the Company’s securities within a period of less than six months. The amount of profits was estimated in the complaint to be approximately $468.

Several motions were filed during 2019 and 2020. On December 18, 2020, the Magistrate Judge issued a Report & Recommendation, which recommended that: (i) judgment of $485 be entered in the Company’s favor on its Section 16(b) claim against Mona; and (ii) Mona’s Section 10(b) claim be dismissed with prejudice (except as to allegations regarding statements purportedly made by employees of Integra Consulting, an outside investor relations firm, which the Magistrate recommended be dismissed without prejudice).

On March 30, 2021, the Court issued an Order adopting the Magistrate Judge’s Report & Recommendation; and on March 31, 2021, the Clerk entered Judgement against Joseph Mona and in favor of the Company in the amount of $484,614.30. On April 27, 2021, Mona filed an appeal of the Court’s Judgment, which is pending before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. the Company intends to oppose the appeal.

On May 3, 2021, the Company obtained a writ of execution to enforce the Judgment against Mona, given Mona’s failure to post a bond or other security in the full amount of the Judgment pending the appeal as required by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. On May 7, 2021, the Company filed a motion to permit the registration of the Judgment in districts outside the Southern District of New York in which Mona may have assets available to satisfy the Judgment.

On May 7, 2021, Mona filed a motion seeking permission to file a proposed Amended Counterclaim to the extent permitted by the Magistrate’s Report & Recommendation as adopted by the Court’s Order. the Company intends to file an opposition to Mona’s motion to amend the Counterclaim on or before May 31, 2021 (in accordance with the schedule set by the Court’s Order).

~~The remaining outstanding warrants and terms as of~~ ~~September~~ ~~30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 are as follows:~~

(*) Prior to January 1, 2019, warrants with non-standard anti-dilution provisions (referred to as down round protection) were classified as liabilities and re-measured each reporting period. On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2017-11, which indicates that a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether an investment is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The Company used a full retrospective approach to adoption and restated its financial statements as of the earliest period presented. The cumulative effect of adoption of ASU 2017-11 resulted in an adjustment to accumulated deficit as of January 1, 2018 of $20 with a corresponding adjustment to additional paid-in capital.

In December 2019, 125,000 outstanding warrants at an exercise price per share of $10.00, were exercised on a “net exercise” or “cashless” basis into 61,677 shares of common stock, and 125,000 outstanding warrants at an exercise price per share of $10.00, were exercised on a “net exercise” or “cashless” basis into 50,143 shares of common stock.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited financial statements and related notes included in Item 1, “Financial Statements,” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2019.~~2020. Certain information contained in this MD&A includes “forward-looking statements.” Statements which are not historical reflect our current expectations and projections about our future results, performance, liquidity, financial condition and results of operations, prospects and opportunities and are based upon information currently available to us and our management and their interpretation of what is believed to be significant factors affecting our existing and proposed business, including many assumptions regarding future events. Actual results, performance, liquidity, financial condition and results of operations, prospects and opportunities could differ materially and perhaps substantially from those expressed in, or implied by, these forward-looking statements as a result of various risks, uncertainties and other factors, including those risks described in detail in the section entitled “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2019.~~2020.

Forward-looking statements, which involve assumptions and describe our future plans, strategies, and expectations, are generally identifiable by use of the words “may,” “should,” “would,” “will,” “could,” “scheduled,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “intend,” “seek,” or “project” or the negative of these words or other variations on these words or comparable terminology.

In light of these risks and uncertainties, and especially given the nature of our existing and proposed business, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements contained in this section and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q will in fact occur. Potential investors should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Except as expressly required by the federal securities laws, there is no undertaking to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, changed circumstances or any other reason.

Microbot is a pre-clinical medical device company specializing in the research, design and development of next generation robotic endoluminal surgery devices targeting the minimally invasive surgery space. Microbot is primarily focused on leveraging its micro-robotic technologies with the goal of redefining surgical robotics while improving surgical outcomes for patients.

Microbot’s current technological platforms, ViRob^TM, TipCAT^TM and ~~Liberty™~~LIBERTY™ (including certain CardioSert assets), are comprised of proprietary innovative technologies. Using the ViRob platform, Microbot is currently developing the Self Cleaning Shunt ~~or SCSTM,~~ for the treatment of hydrocephalus and Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus, or NPH. Utilizing the ~~Liberty~~LIBERTY and CardioSert platforms, Microbot is developing the first ever fully disposable robot for various endovascular interventional procedures. In addition, the Company is focused on the development of a Multi Generation Pipeline Portfolio utilizing all of its proprietary technologies.

Microbot has a patent portfolio of 4042 issued/allowed patents and 23 patent applications pending worldwide.

The ViRob is an autonomous crawling micro-robot which can be controlled remotely or within the body. Its miniature dimensions are expected to allow it to navigate and crawl in different natural spaces within the human body, including blood vessels, the digestive tract and the respiratory system as well as artificial spaces such as shunts, catheters, ports, etc. Its unique structure is expected to give it the ability to move in tight spaces and curved passages as well as the ability to remain within the human body for prolonged time. The SCS product was developed using the ViRob technology.

The TipCAT is a disposable self-propelled locomotive device that is specially designed to advance in tubular anatomies. The TipCAT is a mechanism comprising a series of interconnected balloons at the device’s tip that provides the TipCAT with its forward locomotion capability. The device can self-propel within natural tubular lumens such as the blood vessels, respiratory and the urinary and GI tracts. A single channel of air/fluid supply sequentially inflates and deflates a series of balloons creating an inchworm like forward motion. The TipCAT maintains a standard working channel for treatments. Unlike standard access devices such as guidewires, catheters for vascular access and endoscopes, the TipCAT does not need to be pushed into the patient’s lumen using external pressure; rather, it will gently advance itself through the organ’s anatomy. As a result, the TipCAT is designed to be able to reach every part of the lumen under examination regardless of the topography, be less operator dependent, and greatly reduce the likelihood of damage to lumen structure. The TipCAT thus offers functionality features equivalent to modern tubular access devices, along with advantages associated with its physiologically adapted self-propelling mechanism, flexibility, and design.

On May 25, 2018, Microbot acquired a patent-protected technology from CardioSert Ltd., a privately-held medical device company based in Israel that was part of a technological incubator supported by the Israel Innovation Authorities. The CardioSert technology contemplates a combination of a guidewire and microcatheter, technologies that are broadly used for surgery within a tubular organ or structure such as a blood vessel or duct. The CardioSert technology features a unique guidewire delivery system with steering and stiffness control capabilities which when developed is expected to give the physician the ability to control the tip curvature, to adjust tip load to varying degrees of stiffness in a gradually continuous manner. The CardioSert technology was originally developed to support interventional cardiologists in crossing chronic total occlusions (CTO) during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) procedures and has the potential to be used in other spaces and applications, such as peripheral intervention, and neurosurgery.

On January 13, 2020, Microbot unveiled what it believes is the world’s first fully disposable robotic system for use in Endovascular Interventional procedures, such as cardiovascular, peripheral and neurovascular. The ~~Liberty~~LIBERTY robotic system features a unique compact design with the capability to be operated remotely, reduce radiation exposure and physical strain to the physician, as well as the potential to eliminate the use of multiple consumables ~~through~~when used with its “One & Done” capabilities, which would be based in part on the CardioSert ~~platform.~~platform or possibly other guidewire/microcatheter technologies.

LIBERTY is designed to maneuver guidewires and over-the-wire devices (such as microcatheters) within the body’s vasculature. It eliminates the need for extensive capital equipment requiring dedicated Cath-lab rooms as well as dedicated staff. In addition, when combined with CardioSert technology or possibly other guidewire/microcatheter technologies, it is being designed to streamline Cath-lab procedures with our proprietary “One & Done” tool that combines guidewire and microcatheter into a single device. With control over tip curvature and stiffness for maneuverability and access – and without the need for constant tool exchanges – the “One & Done” feature, ~~of Liberty~~when integrated into the LIBERTY device, may drastically reduce procedure time and costs while enhancing the operator experience.

On August 17, 2020, Microbot announced the successful conclusion of its feasibility animal study using the ~~Liberty~~LIBERTY robotic system. The study met all of its end points with no intraoperative adverse events, which supports Microbot’s objectives to allow physicians to conduct a catheter-based procedure from outside the catheterization laboratory (cath-lab), avoiding radiation exposure, physical strain and the risk of cross contamination. The study was performed by two leading physicians in the neuro vascular and peripheral vascular intervention spaces, and the results demonstrated robust navigation capabilities, intuitive usability and accurate deployment of embolic agents, most of which was conducted remotely from the cath-lab’s control room.

We are continuously exploring and evaluating additional innovative guidewire/microcatheter technologies to be integrated and combined with the ~~Liberty~~LIBERTY robotic platform.

We are continuing our feasibility animal trials with respect to the LIBERTY device, and are expecting a design freeze in the fourth quarter of 2021, pre-submission to the FDA in the first quarter of 2022, clinical trials to commence in the third quarter of 2022, and submission to the FDA in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and related expenses and overhead for ~~our~~Microbot’s research, development and engineering personnel, prototype materials and research studies, ~~and~~ obtaining and maintaining ~~our~~Microbot’s patent portfolio. ~~We expense our~~Microbot expenses its research and development costs as incurred.

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of the costs associated with management ~~costs,~~salaries and benefits, professional fees for accounting, auditing, consulting and legal services, and allocated overhead expenses.

Microbot expects that its general and administrative expenses may increase in the future as it expands its operating activities, maintains and expands its patent portfolio and ~~other intellectual property rights, evaluates and potentially acquires other technologies and assets, and incurs costs associated with being a public company and maintaining~~maintains compliance with exchange listing and SEC requirements. Microbot expects these potential increases will likely include management costs, legal fees, accounting fees, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance premiums and expenses associated with investor relations.

Microbot has incurred net losses and has not recorded any income tax benefits for the losses. It is still in its development stage and has not yet generated revenues, therefore, it is more likely than not that sufficient taxable income will not be available for the tax losses to be ~~fully~~ utilized in the future.

~~Microbot’s management’s~~Management’s discussion and analysis of ~~its~~Microbot’s financial condition and results of operations are based on its consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires Microbot to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. ~~On an ongoing basis, Microbot evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to accrued research and development expenses.~~ Microbot bases its estimates on historical experience, known trends and events, and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

While Microbot’s significant accounting policies are described in more detail in the notes to its consolidated financial statements, Microbot believes the following accounting policies are the most critical for fully understanding and evaluating its consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

The Company measures the fair value of certain of its financial instruments on a recurring basis.

Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices in the markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

~~Microbot’s functional currency is the U.S. dollars, and its reporting currency is the U.S. dollar.~~

Microbot from time to time has received, and may in the future continue to receive, grants from the Israeli Innovation Authority to cover eligible company expenditures. These are presented as other income in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss as the grant funds are used for or applied towards a number of Microbot’s operating expenses, such as salaries and benefits, research and development and professional and consulting fees. The recoveries are recognized in the corresponding period when such expenses are incurred.

Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and related expenses and overhead for Microbot’s research, development and engineering personnel, prototype materials and research studies, and obtaining and maintaining Microbot’s patent portfolio. Microbot recognizes research and development expenses as incurred, typically estimated based on an evaluation of the progress to completion of specific tasks using data such as clinical site activations, manufacturing steps completed, or information provided by vendors on their actual costs incurred. Microbot determines the estimates by reviewing contracts, vendor agreements and purchase orders, and through discussions with internal clinical personnel and external service providers as to the progress or stage of completion of trials or services and the agreed-upon fee to be paid for such services. These estimates are made as of each balance sheet date based on facts and circumstances known to Microbot at that time. If the actual timing of the performance of services or the level of effort varies from the estimate, Microbot will adjust the estimate accordingly. Nonrefundable advance payments for goods and services, including fees for process development or manufacturing and distribution of clinical supplies that will be used in future research and development activities, are capitalized as prepaid expenses and recognized as expense in the period that the related goods are consumed or services are performed.

Microbot may pay fees to third-parties for manufacturing and other services that are based on contractual milestones that may result in uneven payment flows. There may be instances in which payments made to vendors will exceed the level of services provided and result in a prepayment of the research and development expense.

Comparison of Three ~~and Nine~~ Months Ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021 and 2020 ~~and 2019~~

The following table sets forth the key components of Microbot’s results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and ~~nine-month periods ended September 30,~~ 2020 ~~and 2019~~ (in thousands):

Research and Development Expenses. Microbot’s research and development expenses were approximately ~~$1,037,000 and $2,397,000~~$1,119,000 for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, compared to approximately ~~$843,000 and $2,207,000~~$691,000 for the same period in ~~2019.~~2020. The increase in research and development expenses of approximately $$428,000~~194,000~~ in ~~2020~~2021 was primarily due to ~~an increase during~~increases in the ~~three months ended September 30, 2020 of~~payroll due to new hires, and increases relating to professional services, ~~salaries~~materials and ~~IP relating~~intellectual property with respect to ~~development expenses.~~the LIBERTY device. Microbot expects its research and development expenses to continue to increase over time as Microbot advances its development programs and begins pre-clinical and clinical trials for its product candidates.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses were approximately ~~$1,378,000 and $4,065,000~~$1,273,000 for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, compared to approximately ~~$948,000 and $3,045,000~~$1,472,000 for the same period in ~~2019.~~2020. The ~~increase~~decrease in general and administrative expenses of approximately $~~1,020,000~~ $199,000 in ~~the nine months ended September 30, 2020~~2021 was primarily due to ~~increases in the salaries, insurance expenses, rent and share based compensation, partially offset by~~ a decrease in ~~professional services~~bonus expenses ~~relating~~paid to ~~legal fees~~our chief executive officer and ~~travels~~a decrease in travel expenses offset by increases in salaries and related expenses. Microbot believes its general and administrative expenses may increase over time as it advances its programs, increases its headcount and operating activities and incurs expenses associated with being a public company.

Financing Expenses. Financing income ~~(expenses)~~ were approximately ~~$(57,000) and $(70,000)~~$4,000 for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, compared to finance expenses of approximately ~~$(83,000) and $(125,000)~~$42,000 for the same period in ~~2019.~~2020. The decrease in financial ~~income~~expenses for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 was primarily due to ~~accrued~~the interest ~~expense relating~~paid in relation to Microbot’s litigation ~~that was resolved in early 2020.~~for the three months ended March 31, 2020 not recurring during the same period of 2021.

Microbot has incurred losses since inception and negative cash flows from operating activities for all periods presented. As of ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, Microbot had a net working capital of approximately ~~$26,025,000~~$21,932,000, consisting primarily of cash and cash ~~equivalents.~~ equivalents and marketable securities. This compares to net working capital of approximately ~~$31,110,000~~$23,908,000 as of December 31, ~~2019.~~2020. Microbot anticipates that it will continue to incur net losses for the foreseeable future as it continues research and development efforts of its product candidates, hires additional staff, including clinical, scientific, operational, financial and management personnel, and ~~incurs additional~~continues to incur costs associated with being a public company.

Microbot has funded its operations through the issuance of capital stock, grants from the Israeli Innovation Authority, ~~(“IIA”),~~ and convertible debt. Since inception (November 2010) through ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, Microbot has raised net cash proceeds of approximately $54,770,000, and incurred a total cumulative loss of approximately ~~$41,643,000.~~$46,668,000. Microbot ~~recently~~ returned $3,375,000 (before interest) of such proceeds as a result of an adverse outcome in a litigation that concluded in the ~~nine months ended September 30,~~first quarter of 2020, and is now subject to an additional lawsuit seeking the return of an additional $6,750,000 ~~(before interest)~~ of such proceeds.

Microbot Israel obtained from the ~~IIA~~Israeli Innovation Authority (“IIA”) grants for participation in research and development for the years 2013 through ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 in the total amount of approximately $1,500,000 and, in return, Microbot Israel is obligated to pay royalties amounting to 3%-3.5% of its future sales up to the amount of the grant. The grant is linked to the exchange rate of the dollar to the New Israeli Shekel and bears interest at an annual rate of USD LIBOR. Under the terms of the grant and applicable law, Microbot is restricted from transferring any technologies, know-how, manufacturing or manufacturing rights developed using the grant outside of Israel without the prior approval of the Israel Innovation Authority. Microbot has no obligation to repay the grant, if the SCS project fails, is unsuccessful or aborted before any sales are generated. The financial risk is assumed completely by the IIA.

Microbot believes that its net cash will be sufficient to fund its operations for at least 24 months and fund operations necessary to continue development activities of ~~its product candidates.~~the SCS, LIBERTY and TipCAT. However, in the event we are unsuccessful in our current litigation with ~~certain investors,~~Empery and Hudson Bay, pursuant to which they are seeking the return of $6,750,000 ~~(plus interest)~~ in proceeds we received from them in a 2017 stock offering, we may have funds for less than 24 months. In either case, management believes that Microbot has sufficient net cash to fund its operations necessary to continue development activities of its current proposed products for at least 12 months from the issuance date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Microbot plans to continue to fund its research and development and other operating expenses, other development activities relating to additional product candidates, and the associated losses from operations, through its existing cash and possibly additional grants from the ~~IIA.~~Israeli Innovation Authority. Microbot ~~may~~intends to also raise capital through future issuances of debt and/or equity ~~securities.~~securities, including registered offerings under its existing Registration Statement on Form S-3 for up to $75 million of securities, which it may draw down from time to time. These issuances may be opportunistic and even if the ~~company~~Company has enough funds at such time for operations for more than 12-24 months. The capital raises from issuances of convertible debt and equity securities could result in additional dilution to Microbot’s shareholders. In addition, to the extent Microbot determines to incur additional indebtedness, Microbot’s incurrence of additional debt could result in debt service obligations and operating and financing covenants that would restrict its operations. Microbot can provide no assurance that financing will be available in the amounts it needs or on terms acceptable to it, if at all. If Microbot is not able to secure adequate additional working capital when it becomes needed, it may be required to make reductions in spending, extend payment terms with suppliers, liquidate assets where possible and/or suspend or curtail planned research programs. Any of these actions could materially harm Microbot’s business.

The following table provides a summary of the net cash flow activity for each of the periods set forth below (in thousands):

Comparison of the ~~Nine~~Three Months Ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021 and 2020 ~~and 2019~~

Net cash flows from operating activities for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 was approximately ~~$5,582,000,~~$1,994,000, calculated by adjusting net loss from operations by approximately $~~950,000~~ $394,000 to eliminate non-cash and expense items not involving cash flows such as depreciation and share based compensation expense, as well as other changes in current assets and liabilities resulting in non-cash adjustments in the consolidated statements of operations. Cash used in operating activities for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2019~~March 31, 2020 was approximately ~~$4,531,000,~~$2,346,000, similarly adjusted by approximately ~~$846,000.~~$141,000.

Net cash flows from investing activities for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 was approximately ~~$2,438,000,~~ $265,000, compared to approximately $~~(2,496,000)~~ $2,253,000 for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2019,~~March 31, 2020, which consisted of ~~primarily~~proceeds from marketable ~~securities.~~securities of $2,521,000 offset by investing in a convertible loan in the amount of $200,000.

Net cash flows from financing activities of ~~$(3,375,000)~~nil for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2020~~ March 31, 2021 compared to approximately $~~9,562,000~~$3,375,000 for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2019~~ March 31, 2020 consisted of ~~issuance of common stock and warrants and~~ repayment of shareholders investments relating to ~~litigation~~.litigation.

Microbot has no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Microbot’s cash and cash equivalents as of ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019~~2020 consisted of readily available ~~cash~~checking and money market funds. Microbot’s primary exposure to market risk is interest income sensitivity, which is affected by changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates. However, because of the short-term nature of the instruments in Microbot’s portfolio, a sudden change in market interest rates would not be expected to have a material impact on Microbot’s financial condition and/or results of operations. Microbot does not believe that its cash or cash equivalents have significant risk of default or illiquidity. While Microbot believes its cash and cash equivalents do not contain excessive risk, Microbot cannot provide absolute assurance that in the future its investments will not be subject to adverse changes in market value. In addition, Microbot maintains significant amounts of cash and cash equivalents at one or more financial institutions that are in excess of federally insured limits.

Our financial statements are denominated in U.S. dollars and financial results are denominated in U.S. dollars, while a significant portion of our business is conducted, and a substantial portion of our operating expenses are payable, in currencies other than the U.S. dollar.

Exchange rate fluctuations may have an adverse impact on our future revenues, if any, or expenses as presented in the financial statements. We may in the future use financial instruments, such as forward foreign currency contracts, in its management of foreign currency exposure. These contracts would primarily require us to purchase and sell certain foreign currencies with or for U.S. dollars at contracted rates. We may be exposed to a credit loss in the event of non-performance by the counterparties of these contracts. In addition, these financial instruments may not adequately manage our foreign currency exposure. Our results of operations could be adversely affected if we are unable to successfully manage currency fluctuations in the future.

Inflation generally affects Microbot by increasing its clinical trial costs. Microbot does not believe that inflation and changing prices had a significant impact on its results of operations for any periods presented herein.

We maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, management of the Company, under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, reviewed and performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of ~~September 30, 2020.~~March 31, 2021. Based on that review and evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, along with the management of the Company, have determined that as of ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, the disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and were effective to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, identified in connection with the evaluation of such internal control that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm business.

We were named as the defendant in a lawsuit captioned Empery Asset Master Ltd., Empery Tax Efficient, LP, Empery Tax Efficient II, LP, Hudson Bay Master Fund Ltd., Plaintiffs, against Microbot Medical Inc., Defendant, in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York ~~(the “Court”)~~ (Index No. 651182/2020). The complaint alleges, among other things, that we breached multiple representations and warranties contained in the SPA, of which the Plaintiffs participated, and fraudulently induced Plaintiffs into signing the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) related to our June 8, 2017 equity financing (the “Financing”)~~, of which the Plaintiffs participated, and fraudulently induced Plaintiffs into signing the SPA.~~. The complaint seeks rescission of the SPA and return of the Plaintiffs’ $6.75 million purchase price with respect to the Financing. We filed a Motion to Dismiss on March 16, 2020, which Motion ~~is pending before the Court. As~~was denied by decision and order entered on February 17, 2021. On March 18, 2021, we filed a ~~result~~notice of appeal of the ~~adverse~~denial of the Motion to Dismiss. At this time no estimation of the potential outcome ~~with respect to a previous~~of the litigation ~~relating to the SPA~~can be made, and ~~the Financing,~~ management is unable to assess the likelihood that we will succeed ~~on our Motion to Dismiss, or~~ at trial ~~if we lose~~with respect to the ~~Motion.~~SPA or the Financing, having previously lost another lawsuit with respect to the Financing.

On April 28, 2019, we brought an action against Alliance Investment Management, Ltd. (“Alliance”), later amended to include Joseph Mona (“Mona”) as a defendant, in the Southern District of New York under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, 15 U.S.C. 78p(b), to compel Alliance and Mona to disgorge short swing profits realized from purchases and sales of our securities within a period of less than six months. The case is Microbot Medical Inc. v. Alliance Investment Management, Ltd., No. 19-cv-3782-GBD (SDNY). The amount of profits ~~we are seeking to divest is~~was estimated in the complaint to be approximately $468,000.

On October 28, 2019, Alliance filed a motion for summary judgment requesting that the Court dismiss the claims against Alliance. On February 4, 2020, Mona answered the 16(b) claim we asserted against him by claiming various equitable defenses, and filed a counterclaim against Microbot under Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, claiming a net loss on trading Microbot stock of $150,954.

On March 6, 2020, we filed a motion for judgment on the pleadings with respect to our 16(b) claim against Mona, together with a motion to dismiss Mona’s 10(b) counterclaim. ~~These motions were fully briefed as of April 26, 2020 and remain pending.~~

On September 17, 2020, the Court issued a Memorandum Decision & Order that, among other things, granted Alliance’s summary judgment motion. ~~Notwithstanding~~Our Section 16(b) claim against Mona remained pending following the Court’s dismissal of ~~our~~the 16(b) claim against ~~Alliance,~~Alliance.

On December 18, 2020, the Magistrate Judge issued a Report & Recommendation, which recommended that: (i) judgment of $484,614.30 be entered in our favor on our Section 16(b) claim against ~~Mona remains pending.~~Mona; and (ii) Mona’s Section 10(b) claim be dismissed with prejudice (except as to allegations regarding statements purportedly made by employees of Integra Consulting, an outside investor relations firm, which the Magistrate recommended be dismissed without prejudice).

On March 30, 2021, the Court issued an Order adopting the Magistrate Judge’s Report & Recommendation; and ~~to intend to vigorously defend~~on March 31, 2021, the Clerk entered Judgement against ~~Mona’s allegations. However, given that litigation is ongoing, management is unable to predict the outcome~~Joseph Mona and in favor of ~~the case, or~~Microbot in the amount of ~~damages, if any, that~~$484,614.30. On April 27, 2021, Mona filed an appeal of the Court’s Judgment, which is pending before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. Microbot intends to oppose the appeal.

On May 3, 2021, Microbot obtained a writ of execution to enforce the Judgment against Mona, given Mona’s failure to post a bond or other security in the full amount of the Judgment pending the appeal as required by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. On May 7, 2021, Microbot filed a motion to permit the registration of the Judgment in districts outside the Southern District of New York in which Mona may ~~be awarded~~have assets available to satisfy the Judgment.

On May 7, 2021, Mona filed a motion seeking permission to file a proposed Amended Counterclaim to the extent permitted by the Magistrate’s Report & Recommendation as adopted by the Court’s Order. Microbot intends to file an opposition to Mona’s motion to amend the Counterclaim on ~~either our 16(b) claim,~~ or ~~on Mona’s 10(b) counterclaim.~~before May 31, 2021 (in accordance with the schedule set by the Court’s Order).

Other than the foregoing, we are not currently a party in any legal proceeding or governmental regulatory proceeding nor are we currently aware of any pending or potential legal proceeding or governmental regulatory proceeding proposed to be initiated against us that would have a material adverse effect on us or our business.

On August 18, 2020, 14,685 outstanding warrants of the Company at an exercise price per share of $8.125, were exercised on a “net exercise” or “cashless” basis into 4,873 shares of common stock.
